Instructions For Glasses Insertion:
Gently insert the toothpick between the Black TPU (soft foam) and the PLA face above or below where you insert the ear piece.  Then with the tooth pick creating a space between the Black TPU and PLA, gently insert one ear piece 1/4-1/2 way between the TPU and PLA.  Remove the tooth pick and re insert the toothpick as before between the Black TPU (soft foam) and PLA face above or below the other eye (same face side).  Again gently insert the other ear piece 1/4-1/2 way in the space created by the inserted toothpick.  Now with both ear pieces partly inserted, remove the toothpick and gently push the ear pieces completely in.
